Seed Potatoes near Harringay

Seed Potatoes

Our seed potatoes take us by surprise every year as they increase in popularity. Not many garden centres stock the same quantity of varieties this year totalling 91.

They arrive on our nursery around the second week in January, about the same time as the summer bulb selection and are sold from No1 greenhouse. Across the 91 varieties you will find four categories. 1st Early, 2nd Early, Main Crop, Salad & organically produced.

Most are packaged in 2.5kg bags and prices will vary depending upon the variety. We can accommodate large quantity orders but these must be with us before the end of September in the previous year i.e. September 2018 for arrival January 2019. An advance deposit may be required on this scale of order.

FIRST DELIVERIES USUALLY ARRIVE 2nd / 3rd WEEK OF JANUARY.

This year for the 2019 season, a total of 86 cultivars or cultivar variants have been ordered.
Varieties marked bold GREEN are currently in stock, AMBER are low stock & RED are finished for the year or

This list IS NOT set in stone as sometimes suppliers are not able to honour orders. Some varieties may not arrive.

This list was last updated 18/03/19. There will be no more updates & list will be removed at the end of this week. New list Jan 2020.

Sweet potatoes are sold as growing plants & usually arrive on the nursery towards the end April.

Finding your way around our site

Over recent years we have put a lot of effort into making our nursery as easilly accessible as possible. The entire sales area & car park have hard sufaces made from either concrete or tarmac. Outside pathways are wide and our sales beds are sturdy brickwork allowing customers to sit & take a rest if one of our benches is too far away or already occupied.

We feel that you will be able to navigate our nursery with ease, whether you are here for a leisurely browse or a calculated ‘in & out’ quick shop. Free copies of the nursery map (shown to the right) are available from our customer services desk, they also have a shop layout map on the back of them. Don’t forget, a member of staff will be more than happy to point you in the right direction.

We offer discounts on purchases which are open to everyone.

Plant guarantee & refund policy

We are committed to ensuring that we sell excellent quality plants at what we deem to be reasonable prices. Many of our plants are grown here on site which enables us to maintain quality control to a very high level. Other plants are supplied by trusted companies, many of which have been in business for decades. We are always available to advise customers on the correct care for plants pre-purchase.

Because of this confidence in our product we do not offer a plant guarantee. However should you experience a problem with your plant within six months of purchase we will consider either replacement, credit note or advise you on a course of action to take to resolve the issue. Should the plant need to be returned it must be accompanied with valid proof of purchase. A plant is a perishable good reliant on correct level of aftercare for survival. As such, after six months we relinquish responsibility for its nurturing & hand that duty 100% to the purchaser.

Refunds and exchanges

Should you change your mind about a ‘non plant’ product after purchase you may return it to us proving that the packaging has not been opened, the product has not been used, the product is still in saleable condition, with a valid receipt, within 28 days of purchase. Also, should the product be found to be faulty, it should be returned to us inside of 28 days with valid proof of purchase. Return or refund outside of 28 days may also be considered if the product meets the previous requirements stated.
Plant returns should be within 5 working days. The plant will need to be in exactly the same condition as it was at the time of purchase and accompanied with a valid receipt. You will be offered credit note, cost equivalent exchange, or refund to the method of payment.This will be at the discretion of management.

All refunds will be credited in the same fashion as initially received, i.e. if you paid by card, the refund will need to be issued to the same card. If you paid by cash, we can only offer a refund in cash.

We do not offer refunds or guarantees on any sale or stock clearance items.

Please keep your receipt as proof of purchase.

This does not affect your statutory rights.

Established in 1928

Not many Garden Centres can boast over ninety years of history, and yes, we have seen many changes over that period. Indeed change will continue as we strive always to supply the best in plants and facilities. One thing, however, will never change:

The core philosophy first introduced by Archibald John Mills way back in 1928 remains - the philosophy that built the company’s reputation, sustains it now, and will guide it in the future:

The best way to keep gardeners happy is to offer them plants of the highest quality, sold at reasonable prices.

Horticultural Trades Association

We are proud members of the HTA, the Horticultural Trades Association, which is ‘the’ UK’s garden trades association. The HTA has, for over 100 years, promoted the interests of its members and the industry at large.
